2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    has mint finally fixed the bug where autosuspend and monitor suspend stop working? the only reason i don't wanna touch it anymore, troubleshooting that almost drove me nuts

    [–] hanrahan@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 day ago

    i've run Mint and morr lately LMDE for nearly 3 years and not had that problem, AMD only.

    I've been running Mint for years and have never experienced this issue. Either I'm lucky or your not. I say give Mint another shot, the devs have put in a lot of work over the years.

    i left mint about half a year ago, after using it for over two years. i distrohopped during that time, i must've done like 7 clean installs and the issue persisted. weirdly though, it doesn't happen on my media pc. it has crapped itself a few times but it always seems to suspend just fine. no idea what it is about my desktop that causes a wakelock, but ultramarine works just fine. I'd like to go back to mint just because i like cinnamon more..

    Is the computer an old windows machine? I had a Lenovo laptop a while back that was a win 10 machine that I ran DBAN on then threw Mint on. After about a year of slow but solid performance I started having Grub issues and I just got sick of debugging it and gave up on it since it was just a hand-me-down and I prefer my desktop.

    yes it has had windows in its previous life, it's lenovo p1 and i think gen 3. performance is quite ok though

    [–] oppy1984 1 points 9 hours ago

    The previous windows install is the only thing I can see as the common denominator, I've installed Mint on three computers that started with no OS, and the Lenovo that was a Win 10 computer that I now have issues with.

    Sorry I don't have any real answers, I wish I did since I'm having issues with a laptop too.
